67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)

[67cheby]

Thank you ! Started working on a few fitment issues on the gate still a ways to go but making progress, the gate literally couldnt go in far enough to be flush on the outside so i slit the rear brace from top to bottom and took a little out, i still need to get a port-a-power and spread the top of the bed just a little to get my spacing back at the top of the gate

Looks good, I agree just a little at top on pass side and gap will be great.....Jim

[sgaylord]

Seriously....U got a lot on your plate right now but Ur getting there....when i go in my shop I leave problems at the door......works wonders for my blood pressure!! Maybe this would be a good time to see if your son has some talent in building trucks -U never know....mine was always into football and never has grasped the building thing until a little while ago .....was in my shop wanting to do a square body like I bought him when he was 16......I went "DAMNNN" ........lol...........Main thing I never pressured him to do what "I" wanted but rather let him do his thing.......RAISIN KIDS .......nothin like it......lol.........jim

Looking good! Nice work on getting the tailgate gaps closer and the fan looks really good!

I'm sure the port-a-power will work fine. Also you could just give it a couple swift kicks
